Royal Air Forces Escaping Society Resistance Memorial

This bronze plaque is a copy of an original erected at the Central Church of the Royal Air Force, St. Clements Danes, to commemorate the many people in occupied Europe who risked their own lives by aiding downed aircrew to escape.

The original of this plaque was first dedicated on 21 June 1981 by the Royal Air Forces Escaping Society and unveiled by La Comtesse Andrée Eugénie Adrienne (Dede) De Jongh, leader of the Comete Escape Line on 12 July 1986 and set in place through the Bomber Command Association.
